Being an IPA fanatic I have looked everywhere for this beer on multiple occasions. I have to agree with you, most of these DIPA that are rare end up being a massive let down. If you are ever in Florida, look for J Dubs Up Top IPA out of Sarasota and Jai Alai by Cigar City Brewing, both are fantastic. I have recently discovered a nice American IPA from Left Hand brewing, Extrovert.

I don't usually take pictures of restaurant dinners but this was really good last night. Lobster ravioli for my wife and veal parm for me, along with a bottle of Valdicava Brunello I brought along.

Too sad that we would never have the option to show-race each other. Otherwise you could count me in for that

So, I did this to replace my kids GLI logo on his Jetta.



Really liked how it turned out. German car...we're part German - fits. From here, my son (17, mind you) convinces me to do something similar. Daughter (20) buys in on this. I pay $7 on ebay for this...

This was the first go...couldn't even see the black. Looked more Ronald McDonald than German.




And both my kids think this "is" the shit. Well...I couldn't even see the black, so I thought I'd swap it out with a matte black strip I had lying around.



Even with that, still not in love. I can't see this lasting the weekend. Agree?


May give a go at something small under the rear door on the rocker panel. Not sure if I'll even like that.

On the vdub it's meh. On the Audi I wouldn't. Also I would consider removing the "S4 & Supercharged" badges.
